Greek Chicken Bowls
Grilled Greek Lemon Chicken, cucumber, tomatoes, red onion, kalamata olives, feta cheese, and homemade tzatziki sauce all in one bowl. A high-protein and low carb meal!
I am full-on obsessed with bowls. It is an easy way to get a ton of my vegetables in at one time and the bowls are usually gluten-free which is always a good thing in my diet. Plus you can meal prep these bowls ahead of time so eating a healthy meal at lunch or dinner is super easy!
Mediterranean food has been so popular recently because of its health benefits and incredible flavors. My daughter and I make these Greek Chicken Gyros with Tzatziki Sauce at least once a week when she is home from college. Actually, homemade tzatziki sauce is in our refrigerator at all times.
What ingredients go into Greek Chicken Bowls?
- Grilled Lemon Chicken
- Grape Tomatoes
- Sliced Cucumbers
- Red Onions
- Feta Cheese
- Kalamata Olives
- Tzatziki Sauce
If you want to add some filling carbs, you can add quinoa, rice, or couscous to the bowls.
How to make Greek Chicken Bowls?
- Start by grilling or sauteeing chicken. I prefer to marinate my chicken for at least 30 minutes but 3-4 hours is ideal. Once it is grilled or sauteed, wait 5 minutes before slicing to allow the juices to soak in.
- Make the homemade tzatziki sauce. You can use store-bought as well but this homemade tzatziki sauce is killer. Use unflavored and unsweetened Greek yogurt because this is similar to a dressing. Also, make sure to squeeze out as much water as possible from the grated cucumber so the tzatziki sauce doesn't become watery.
- To assemble bowls start with grilled chicken, tomatoes, cucumbers, red onions, and kalamata olives. Top with a generous amount of feta cheese and tzatziki sauce.
- These Greek Chicken Bowls can be made ahead of time and are perfect to put together on meal-prep Sundays.

What can I use instead of cucumber? That is one of the few vegetables I can't eat. Could I use zucchini instead?

I found your instagram a few months ago (through Brooke Romney writes) and have been obsessively making your recipes. This is one we've already made 3 or 4 times. It's amazing. We usually do a rice base, or lettuce.
